Synopsis

This book presents an exact mathematical solution to the problem of electromagnetic wave diffraction by a right-angled wedge with surface waves. The author first introduces an auxiliary function that satisfies the wave equation and simple homogeneous boundary conditions on both surfaces of the wedge. By solving an auxiliary partial differential equation, the original field can be determined. The author also gives an asymptotic representation of the far field. The appendix includes a discussion of the far field evaluation of the electromagnetic field. The book provides a detailed and rigorous treatment of a fundamental problem in diffraction theory. It is accessible to researchers and professionals working in electromagnetics, applied mathematics, and related fields.
